Default Show me your rims!

Hi guys,
I'm helping my friend look for nice rims for his very rare 1989 930 slantnose targa here in Singapore. Which rims to go for? He once those fat tyres like 285 or 295 at the rears and one piece rims. Ive suggested to him Fikse profil 10 or 13. In the mean time it would be nice to see what rims you guys have on. Here are mine.

Ruf Speedline limited production made in Italy.
275/40/17 10 inch rears. (Next round I'm going 285)
235/40/17 9 inch fronts.

Here are mine. Bare in mind that I didn't pick these rims, they came with the car. They are SSR GT3, three piece rims. They are nice, but not my first choice. In my opinion the BBS LMs on UDpride's car are the best! In fact, I once had a set on my GTI. In my opinion the LMs are just a classic rim. I also love the "old school", chromed 17", two piece Fuchs that Lindsey Racing does! I'm considering this for my spare set of Fuchs.

sandman,

the BBS LM are the best in my opinion but cost a lot. If I did'nt get the Ruf rims I would have gone for the BBS LM rims. However I dont think my friend will pay so much for the BBS.

Well, what's the old saying: "you got to PAY if you wanna PLAY". I think a "rare 930S Targa" deserves a $$$$ wheel! It's your job to convince him!

Default Linsey Racing Polished Classics

They look great on any classic coupe 930. They are hard to beat in my opinion.

Sand Man yours are perfect on your car! Do you want to trade?

Mine are OZ 3 piece 9" inchers on front & 11's on the rear with 315 Dunlop Sport 8000 Tires.

Of course the BBS's are beautiful as well!
